After months spent in one of the worst parts of Afghanistan, some of our Ft. Drum soldiers was devestated to find out that even tho they was in Kuwait, awaiting arrival home, it wasn't going to happen...
My best friend online, another Army Mom whose son is stationed at Ft. Drum also, told me the news tonight. They are extending their tour until June, even tho they was waiting to come home. They woke them up last night and gave them the news. They was expected in at Ft. Drum earlier today, so many preparations was made, familes moved back, ect for the expected return.
I feel so bad for all involved.., I can't imagine what I would be going through if that had happened to my son.
Why did they wait until then to tell them?? Some of the men had already returned home and now have to turn around and go back.
My friend also told me after talking to her son today, that they only have room for one battalion, not a whole company, which is returning.
Any thoughts or something that I can tell her, she is in a bad way now...
